The David Hahn Show

David Hahn asks what Grok's refusal to call Jesus a fake god reveals about the extraordinary claim at the heart of Christianity. As Cardinal Mauro Gambetti leaves St Peter's Basilica for Chieti-Vasto, he weighs a tenure marked by restrictions on Mass, celebrity events and repeated desecrations of the papal altar, and asks what our churches are for. He then examines the Tennessee bishops' call to abolish the death penalty after Christa Pike survived her execution.

Fr Cajetan Cuddy OP joins David Hahn to tell how reading Reformed theologians as a teenager led him to Aquinas, the Catholic Church and the Dominican Order. He explains why God holding all the cards does not compete with human freedom, what that means for confession and evangelisation, and why he calls Thomism "intellectual monasticism". They also discuss why modern relativism leaves us isolated, where Aquinas got things wrong, whether he was anti-mystical and where to begin with the Summa.

David Hahn follows Pope Leo's apostolic visit to France, where vast crowds turned out in Paris, Lourdes and Metz and the Holy Father challenged the country's leaders on assisted suicide and surrogacy. He then looks at a new Institute for Family Studies report finding that churchgoing Catholics marry more, divorce less and report happier marriages and better sex lives than their secular peers. Finally, researchers begin drilling at a Turkish site some believe could hold Noah's Ark, and David asks what it would take to prove it.

Dr Carrie Gress, author of The End of Woman and Something Wicked, joins David Hahn to dismantle the myth that feminism was a grassroots movement for women, tracing its roots to Mary Wollstonecraft and the poet Percy Shelley, and showing how contempt for men, promiscuity and the occult became its recurring pattern. She argues that feminism and Christianity cannot be merged, that real womanhood is bound up with fertility and motherhood rather than the "accidents" of independence, and that the sexual revolution left both men and women worse off. Gress also offers a path forward, from healthy models of marriage and motherhood to men and women rebuilding trust through ordered friendship rather than mutual contempt.

Corrections: David said the Vatican granted Latin Mass exemptions across 34 dioceses last year, the correct figure is 33, and the additional restriction on the Traditional Latin Mass was introduced by Pope Francis in December 2021, not 2023.

MPs have defeated the latest attempt to legalise assisted suicide in England and Wales, rejecting Lauren Edwards' Terminally Ill Adults Bill by 286 votes to 270 and killing off the Parliament Act strategy that would have forced it into law regardless of the Lords. Cardinal Walter Brandmüller argues that the Church's current model of synodality is partly inspired by Protestant practice and cannot be reconciled with Catholic teaching on episcopal authority, even as new Vatican figures show parish exemptions for the Traditional Latin Mass still being granted while this year's Ad Petri Sedem pilgrims are barred from celebrating it inside St Peter's Basilica. Cardinal Raymond Burke has publicly defended the title of Mary as Co-Redemptrix in the Netherlands, pushing back against a Vatican document that calls the term always inappropriate.

David Hahn sits down with Dr John Bergsma to unpack what it means for Catholics to 'major on the majors' rather than get lost in secondary debates. Bergsma reflects on the death of his teenage son to brain cancer earlier this year and points to the cross as the lens for understanding suffering, and explains why he prays through the Psalms every day as training for the spiritual life. He also addresses modern biblical scholarship's challenges to the Magisterium, including claims that Moses never existed, and debunks the Da Vinci Code-style myths around Opus Dei, of which he is a supernumerary.

David Hahn covers this week's March for Life in London, where over 10,000 people marched from Westminster to Parliament Square under the banner "Abortion Hurts the Family," backed by a record fifteen bishops. He examines the opposition that followed, from trans activists disrupting Mass at Westminster Cathedral to a violent police crackdown on counter-protesters targeting a peaceful rosary rally in Germany, and asks what the growing hostility really signals. Then, an anonymous bishop's claim that ten underground bishops have been secretly consecrated in China raises fresh doubts about whether the Vatican's deal with Beijing is still working.

David Hahn talks to Alex Denley about Pope Leo XIV's new encyclical on artificial intelligence, which frames the race for artificial general intelligence as a modern Tower of Babel and asks who the resulting power actually serves. They discuss the encyclical's warnings on AI weapons and surveillance already used in the Ukraine war, and how the everyday experience of chatbots has quietly built public support for a far more ambitious AGI project. Denley also traces Catholic social teaching's rejection of liberalism back to Rerum Novarum, and gives the example of AI data centers threatening small American towns to explain why the principle of subsidiarity still matters.

David Hahn covers new revelations that Pope Leo personally ordered the Vatican to stop displaying artwork by Fr Marko Rupnik, who faces extensive abuse allegations, with the remaining mosaics set to be covered before the Pope's visit to Lourdes.

David Hahn also examines a NATO commander's claim to share Pope Leo's scepticism of "just war" theory, and reports on West Virginia's new bishop expanding access to the Traditional Latin Mass across the diocese.

Catholic Answers apologist Joe Heschmeyer joins David Hahn to unpack why the SSPX's excommunications have drawn so much attention, and why he pushes back on claims that Rome is applying a double standard compared to the Vatican's deal with China and Germany's outspoken bishops. He explains what Vatican II's teaching on religious liberty actually says, and why the old maxim that error has no rights still holds even though the church cannot coerce belief. Heschmeyer also makes the case for a universal call to apologetics, and shares how he and his wife are raising their three young children to know and love the faith.
